The synthesis of new pyrazolyl and cyclopropyl derivatives of purpurin-18 methyl ester and purpurin-18-N-butylimide 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b and 8 is described. The new compounds were characterized by NMR, UV-vis spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. UV-vis spectra of the new compounds showed long wavelength absorption of ranges 692 - 708 nm ($\lambda_{max}$). Photodynamic effects of the chlorin derivatives 1a, 1b, 2a and 2b were investigated by WST-1 assay in A549 cells, and showed good photodynamic activities with high photocytotoxicity and low cytotoxicity in the dark. In comparison between pyrazolyl and cyclopropyl derivatives, purpurin-18 methyl ester compounds 1a and 1b showed comparable photocytotoxicity result of the cell viabilities, otherwise, pyrazolyl derivative of purpurin-18-N-butylimide 2a showed better cell viabilities than those of cyclopropyl derivative 2b. And cyclopropyl derivative of purpurin-18-N-butylimide 2b showed higher dark cytotoxicity than that of others.

The conformations of dicyclopropyl, isopropyl cyclopropyl, and diisopropylcarbenes were optimized using density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31G(d)). We showed that the optimized geometries of carbenes with cyclopropyl groups are fully in accord with those expected for bisected W-shaped conformations, in which the effective hyperconjugation of a cyclopropyl group with singlet carbene can occur. The stabilization energies were evaluated at the B3LYP/6-311+G(3df, 2p)//B3LYP/6-31G(d) + ZPE level using an isodesmic equation. The relative stability of carbenes is in the order $(c-Pr)_2$C: > (i-Pr)(c-Pr)C: > $(i-Pr)_2$C:, and a cyclopropyl group stabilizes carbene more than an isopropyl group by nearly 9 kcal/mol. Energies for the decomposition of diazo compounds to carbenes increase in the order $(c-Pr)_2$ < (i-Pr)(c-Pr) < $(i-Pr)_2$ by ~9 kcal/mol each. From a singlettriplet energy gap ($E_{ST}$) calculation, the singlet level is lower than the triplet level and the $E_{ST}$ shows a trend similar to the stabilization energy calculations. For comparison, the optimized geometries and stabilization energies for the corresponding carbocations were also studied at the same level of calculation. The greater changes in geometries and the higher stabilization energies for carbocations compared to carbenes can explain the greater hyperconjugation effect.

A series of novel cyclopropyl nucleosides was synthesized using the highly stereoselective Simmons-Smith reaction starting from 1,2:5,6-di-Ο-isopropylidene-D-mannitol. The structural assignments of these nucleosides were determined by NMR studies and X-ray crystallography. All the synthesized nucleosides were assayed against several viruses.

Novel exomethylene cyclopropyl nucleosides were synthesized as potential antiviral agents. The key intermediate 5 was synthesized in 4 steps, from Feists acid 1 and was condensed with purine derivatives by the $S_N2$ type reaction to give some cyclopropyl nucleosides. The synthesized nucleosides did not showed any significant antiviral activity against HSV-1, HSV-2, HCMV, HIV-1, HIV-2, and HBV up to 100 $\mu\textrm{m}$.

A series of novel exomethylene cyclopropyl nucleosides have been synthesized starting from Feist's acid. Classical nucleophilic substitution conditions ($K_2CO_3$, 18-crown-6) of the tosylate 2 as well as Mitsunobu reaction (DEAD, $PPh_3$) of alcohol 1 with pyrimidine bases afforded a series of novel cyclopropyl nucleosides. Compound 4b displayed moderate anti-HBV activity without any cytotoxicity up to $100{\;}{\mu}M$.

A simple synthetic route for the synthesis of novel methyl branched cyclopropyl phosphonic acid nucleosides is described. The characteristic cyclopropyl moiety 8 was constructed by employing Simmons-Smith reaction as a key step. The condensation of mesylate 11 with natural nucleosidic bases (A,C,T,U) under standard nucleophilic substitution conditions ($K_2CO_3$, 18-Crown-6, DMF) and after subsequent hydrolysis resulted in the formation of target nucleosides, 16, 17, 18, and 19. In addition, the antiviral evaluations of the synthesized nucleotides against various viruses were also performed.

Novel trans-2,2-dimethylcyclopropyl nucleosides were synthesized as potential antiviral agents. The key intermediate, 3, was synthesized via five steps from ethyl chrysanthemate and condensed with purine bases using the Mitsunobu reaction to give six cyclopropyl nucleosides. These synthesized nucleosides did not show any significant antiviral activity against HSV-1, HSV-2, EMCV, Cox B3, or VSV, at concentrations up to 100 $\mu M$.

[6R-[6$\alpha$, 7$\beta$(Z)]]-7-[[[2-Amino-4-thiazoly)methoxyimino]-acetyl]amino]-3-[[[[7-( 3-carboxy-1-cyclopropyl-6,8-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-guinolonyl)-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]oct-1(5)-en-3-yl]thioxomethyl]thio]methyl]-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-en-2-carboxylic acid (DACD) was synthesized from 1-cyclopropyl-6,8-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-7-[7-(mercapto) thioxomethyl-[3,7-dia zabicyclo[3.3.0]oct-1(5)-en-3-yl}]-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid disodium salt(C2) and cefotaxime. The invitro activity of novel dual-action cephalosporin, DACD, was compared with the in vitro activities of CENO(cefotaxime 3'-norfloxacin dithiocarbamate), cefotaxime, and norfloxacin against a variety of bacterial species. In vitro activity of DACD was superior to that of norfloxacin against Streptococcus pyogenes. Against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, its activity was almost equal to that of CENO.
